Intro
B G#m D#m F# (repeat)
B G#m D#m F#
Each time on my leaving home
B G#m D#m F#
I run back to my mother's arms,
B G#m D#m F# B
One last hold and then it's over.
Watching me, you know I cry,
You wave a kiss to say goodbye,
Feel the sky fall down upon me!
Emaj7 D#m G#m A E
All I am, a child with promises
C#m7 D#m G#m A E F#
All I have, are miles full of promises of home.
If only I could stay with you,
My train moves on, you're gone from view,
Now I must wait until it's over.
Days will pass, your words to me,
It seems so long; eternity,
But I must wait until it's over.
